I have recently discovered a new "recipe" for fun, thanks to my cousin Kevin. Kevin is the grandson of the Aunt and Uncle who raised my brother and me after our parents died. Kevin's Dad was my Aunt and Uncle's son. When I moved to Wenatchee in 1971 (50 years ago) it was his family that gave me a place to live until I could get a job and afford a place of my own. I got a job right away, started saving my money, and moved out about a year later.
Kevin and his 3 siblings were raised in Wenatchee but their adult lives have taken them all elsewhere. Kevin comes back to Wenatchee fairly often to visit friends and do some fishing. When he's planning to come to town he usually sets aside a day for us to get together and play a game of golf. We have a family rivalry thing going.
But, this post isn't about golf. It's about another savory "recipe" that Kevin cooked up on his last visit. Two weeks ago, Kevin and his wife Jennifer and Jennifer's parents from San Diego came to Wenatchee and we all enjoyed the new savory delight.
Simple ingredients:
Limousine and driver
Friends and Family
Wineries of choice
Instructions:
* Hire 1 Limousine and driver for 5 hours
* Make appointments to visit 3 wineries
* Gather up to 7 people (or add more depending on limo capacity)
* Arrange for the limo to meet the family and the friends at a designated location
* Drive to the first winery of choice
* Spend 1 hour enjoying a selection of wines
* Drive to the second winery of choice
* Spend 1 hour enjoying a selection of wines
* Drive to the third winery of choice
* Spend 1 hour enjoying a selection of wines
* Load back up in the limo for the ride back to the pick-up location
* Plug into the music port in the limo
* Tune in to some rock music
* Sing and dance to rock music while sitting in the limo on the ride back to town. Note: I do have video of this portion but have been sworn to NOT post it so I guess there won't be any bonus points for me on this post. LOL
This was a fun fun fun event. We all agreed 3 wineries was the perfect number for any given trip.
Thanks, Kevin, for cooking up a new recipe for fun.
Just for the record, Kevin's wife Jennifer actually made all of the arrangements at the wineries so thanks, Jennifer!
